CHAPTER 8. CLIP VIEW 99
Groove can be applied to both MIDI clips and audio clips. Applying groove to audio
clips does require that the Warp switch be activated and a Warp Mode other than Re-Pitch
selected. If an audio clip is in Beats Mode, the Transients setting must be greater than or
equal to the Clip Groove chooser's swing setting (e.g., with a Transients setting of 1/16,
Swing 8 and Swing 16 can be used, but not Swing 32).
Because of this feature's dependency on note timing, we recommend that you quantize
MIDI clips prior to applying groove provided you want predictable results. For audio clips,
any swing contained within the original sample can be removed by appropriately setting
Warp Markers prior to applying the articial swing of the Groove setting.
8.1.5 Clip Offset and Nudging
To jump within a playing clip in increments the size of the global quantization period, you
can use the Nudge buttons in the Clip box.

These buttons can also be mapped to keys or MIDI controllers. In MIDI Map Mode, a scrub
control will appear between the Nudge buttons and can be assigned to a rotary encoder
wheel for continuous scrubbing.
